LPT: If you have trouble engaging your core, hum a song

r/

When I notice I’m not keeping my core tight, I’ll hum a song until my lungs are empty and it helps me keep my upper and lower abs engaged.

    Why do we want to engage our core?

    This is a good tip! I always think I’m not doing it correctly.

    Hmm. Some of us have learnt to hum with a disengaged core. I didn’t even learn about it until after my first few decades. It’s always weird trying to engage it now, and there’s a lot of “Did I do it yet? Is that it?” going on.

    So far this is the only tip on here that has actually been a tip for me.
